[B628]Best Work From Home Opportunity

SFI (Strong Future International) provides a number of niches that can help a wide range of interested prospects to pursue a simple work from home opportunity on the Internet. To make the most of this free to join opportunity, one must understand the importance of becoming an EA (Executive Affiliate).

In SFI, there are three major ranks: the entry level affiliate, the executive affiliate, and the team leader. As soon as one signs up for free, one becomes an affiliate. When one achieves 10 SVP (sales volume points), one becomes an executive affiliate. When one has 5 personally sponsored affiliates making EA on top of achieving 10 SVP oneself, one becomes a team leader. The higher the rank, the more commissions one receives.

There is also a significant difference between an entry level affiliate and the EAs and TLs. This difference is the access to benefit from the team effort, or residual income. If one stays a non-EA affiliate, one is limited to getting only the commissions on the individual sales one makes, and one cannot benefit from one's team members' effort. On the contrary, as an EA, one can have access to one's team members' sales efforts and really start to get the benefit of residual income, which is the whole point of such a simple work from home opportunity.

How does one achieve the 10 SVP to qualify for EA? There is the free way and the paid way, both discussed below.

The Free Way to Become An SFI EA

The free way is simply to promote SFI's products to the general public. When the public makes sales through the affiliate's personal gateways, he receives some SVPs and some commissions calculated differently. When the SVPs add up to 10 for the month, the affiliate becomes an EA automatically for that month.

Some less expensive and more popular SFI products with their USD and SVP equivalents are as follows:

? Membership with IAHBE(International Association Of Home Business Entrepreneur) ($29.95/month, 10 SVP)

? Long distance sponsoring CD download ($29.95, 10 SVP)

? Veriuni Advanced Antioxidant with Red Wine Extract ($31.95, 10 SVP)

? Veriuni Advanced Liquid Nutrition ($31.95, 10 SVP)

? Membership with Affiliate Mastery ($39/month, 10 SVP)

? Home Business Revolution's Greatest Entrepreneurs Series, vols 1 & 2 ($27.95, 10 SVP)

? Veriuni cleaning sample pack ($54.21, 7.03 SVP)

? Veriuni all-purpose natural cleaner, gallon ($27.63, 4.22 SVP)

? Veriuni Thermo! Fat-Burner Formula ($24, 5 SVP)

These products may be easy or difficult to market, depending on the affiliate's experience with internet marketing. SFI provides various free marketing aids such as the website gateways with the affiliate's id so that a good portion of lead capturing is already done. The affiliate's responsibility is to advertise these gateways on traffic exchanges, advertising zones, or even offline via flyers, which are also readily printable from the SFI affiliate center.

The Paid Way to Become An SFI EA

The paid way is simply to buy the least expensive 10 SVP oneself. The most popular choice as such is the membership to IAHBE at $29.95/month as listed above.

Buying the IAHBE membership on a monthly basis has several benefits. The biggest one is that it's a reliable way to become and stay an EA month after month so that the affiliate knows that he has access to team building and residual income all the time.

IAHBE also offers a wealth of resources on home business building including expert articles on marketing tips and guidance, cutting edge tools, inspirational success stories, free business books, to name a few. This membership actually compliments well with the simple work from home opportunity with SFI.

The cost of the membership actually ends up being less than $29.95. As soon as one becomes an EA, one is eligible for a guaranteed Executive Bonus check for the month. This bonus currently runs around $10, which effectively reduces the $29.95 to $19.95.

One can see that both the free way and the paid way have their own pros and cons. The free way does not involve out of pocket expenses, but it may be hard to achieve if one is not experienced (and typical newbies are not experienced) in sales and marketing. Additionally, even with making some sales, it is not reliable that one always makes at least 10 SVP every month to stay an EA (one loses the powerline/commission position if one drops the EA status in any month and has to start all over again).

On the other hand, paying for the IAHBE membership can ensure continued EA status, but requires at least $19.95/month investment. Many affiliates will end up taking the paid option just because it is reliable. Experience says that as long as the affiliate continues the team building effort as guided by the extensive training in the SFI's affiliate center, there will be a time when the affiliate will see that his team members turning EAs and start sponsoring their own affiliates. It will be as if the business had taken on a life of its own. Is the $19.95 worth it to make that happen?

To conclude, SFI provides a simple work from home opportunity for a lot of people who look to earn an income on the Internet. To make this opportunity work for one, one needs to consider becoming and staying an EA whether through the free way, which takes more time and is more difficult to achieve for most people, or the paid way, which is instant but requires monthly investment of $19.95. The choice is the individual's. Regardless, one should definitely become an EA in order to get the residual income and make the best of this simple work from home opportunity with SFI.
